View Full Version : Sub for 03 Tahoe
Big Frank
12-09-2003, 12:17 PM
I have a 03 Tahoe w/ Factory CD and Polk speakers in all four doors. I want to add some type of small sub in the rear and not give up the small amount of cargo space I have now. I noticed a endention in the left rear panel in the cargo area that looks like it is for a factory 8 inch sub. I am not looking to shake the windows with lots of watts but simply enhance the factory CD player with a rear sub. It sounds like all my sound is up front and nothing in the back. Any suggestions? Thanks, Big Frank

this is what I did with the 02 Tahoe...just modified the existing box...sub would not just fit.... going to re-make the whole thing sinc eht stock one is kinda cheezy....but the pic gives ya an idea of what you have to work with..
good luck...
btw..you could also get the 1024..wich only needs .66 if you want to modify the box

caps = what really really really loose ho-ey girls use to... ok i'll stop this joke.
beer = what's for dinner
chicken = what's for desert
i'd build a catapult and shoot at shit... considering i've never used a gunbefore it might be an amusing sight.

why dont you two hick bitches drive up here and help me take this 10 inch lift out of my 88 Ram Power Wagon W100 4x4 with 38" swampers.
and yes -- i did actually buy such a truck -- cost me 4 grand -- has 60 k miles on it -- which considering the tires means like 150,000 right?
i wanna drop it down to like a 3" lift with maybe some 275/75/R15's or 16's.

dude if i ever find that damn cap charge-y thing it'll be in the mail... i dont know where my mother put it -- this is what i get for letting her "organize" my stuff.
i mean my room/basement/garage isn't a mess anymore - everything is in these little plastic fishing/tackle box looking things and in rubbermaid bins, which is cool - IF SHE WUDDA FRICKIN LABELED THEM!!!!!!!!!!! .... can't find a damn thing.
somehow it was easier to find a one foot piece of 8 gauge wire in a stack of shit a pile high than to find it in a rubbermaid bin.

thomas--sounds like fun
i def. want to see your new console...i thought your old one looked pretty nice...
good luck to ya
it took me a weekend to move all my amps around and fix the wiring
i was in the truck for about 15 hours total
2 times a day...started at 10...ate lunch at 12-1
then got back in around 1 and worked til 7
did that saturday and sunday
had all the tools and shit in the truck which probably wasnt a good idea b/c i never got out to straighten out my legs
i have about an hour more work to do...just dont have the time...i actually have everything now...and its paid for...thats a plus
vince-no hurry:)
i used to have the same problem with my mom "cleaning" my stuff...until i started locking the door to my room...

that's a good idea... i think i'm gonna invest in a deadbolt this weekend...

my "room" consists of the basement, my actual room, and the garage... i'd need 3 deadbolts, and then they'd say i was locking them outa their own house -- but i'll try it anyway.
